The Milton City Council recently approved a $3,250 contract with AAA Tree Experts Group, LLC for the removal of 10 hazardous trees at Providence Park.

These 10 trees are on, or next to, the blue walking trail. Some of the trees are still standing, some have fallen, and a few have fallen over creeks.

The contract includes clearing pathways, dropping the trees or leaving them in a natural manner, and removing trees over creeks and streams. All debris is to be left on-site near or next to where the trees currently exist.
